Crystal Palace have contacted the Premier League over the treatment of star forward Wilfried Zaha.
The Ivorian was the most fouled player in the league last season, and games so far this campaign have seemed to confirm it will be the same case this year.
Despite netting in Palace’s win away at Huddersfield at the weekend, Zaha walked off the pitch battered and bruised after a brutal showing from the Terriers.
Two tackles in particular have stoked rage in the 25-year-old, namely one from Etienne Capoue against Watford and another by Mathias Jorgensen in Yorkshire.
The Telegraph report that Palace have approached the Premier League authorities for clarification regarding several challenges on Zaha.
In addition to this complaint, ex-referee chief Keith Hackett has spoken out with his belief that referees should be doing more to protect the targeted Zaha.
Palace won their first game since the opening weekend on Saturday, and currently have two wins and three losses from their first five games.
